Why The Most Hated UFC Fighters Are Actually Hated

There is a reason why the most hated fighters currently in the UFC are actually hated. I picked out a handfull of the most disliked fighters in the UFC and stated the two main reasons why they are currently disliked more than any. Let me know if I missed any fighters out

[@ishy858]

Thing about Belal, I don't *hate* him, I don't actively *dislike* him, I just can't find anything I do like about him. He's just... there? Just a guy who wins a lot and I just go "Oh Belal won a fight by decision again, good for him."

[@MexicanoSZ]

same, i just... idk, he's a solid fight, but it seems like something is missing when he fights

[@ishy858]

@@MexicanoSZ It's how safe he plays it. Nothing wrong with caution from a fighter, that's understandable, but it seems that Belal is happy to coast along with points and control time, with nary an attempt at finish - doesn't really GnP, never looks for submissions.

Its so hard to be a fan of izzy man. His rise to the title was something special , his defences were not the most exciting fights but his kos of costa , whittaker and pereira were fucking phenomenal. But with all the dog stuff and his cringey behavior its hard to like him man

[@Bathingwookie]

Gotta love those people that go “I don’t understand why everyone hates this guy???” * scratches head * Like they have never ran into someone that they don’t like.

[@ThatBoyyLeroy]

I agree with most of the mcgregor take but I’m pretty sure the only reason the bus situation happened was bc khabib and his group surrounded one of Connor’s friends and was slapping him around when he was by himself . Doesn’t excuse what Connor did but it’s still good context to know

[@uniquecallum2005]

I genuinely don’t like Sean Omalley am I the only one cuz I think he’s so annoying

[@holyarchangelmichael]

No, I agree. O'Malley is annoying. He's terrible on the mic and his refusal to accept his loss against Vera shows how fragile his ego is. Also, O'Malley barely has any impressive wins despite being the champion. Aside from a controversial decision win against Yan (whose career was seemingly ruined by that illegal knee) and an admittedly impressive KO of Sterling, O'Malley's wins in the UFC are all against low-tier opponents. He got fast-tracked to a title shot because of his popularity.

[@aquatazer]

@@holyarchangelmichael he didn't get fast-tracked, I'd honestly say he got slow-tracked. He took more time than hyped prospects usually do to fight top-ranked opponents and he proved he's the best in the division right now. I'd take Sandhagen over him once they fight, but I do believe he would have beaten Chito without the fluke perennial nerve kick (it never happens in MMA). I'm not even a big O'Malley fan, people are just so biased against him with very little evidence to be honest. He has absolutely no charisma, though.

The UFC didn’t decide the winner of Gordon/Pimblett, the athletic commission did. That “what did the UFC do? They gave him a win” is misleading. Blame athletic commissions and judges, not the organization.

[@ps3gamertagc021297]

I was a fan of Israel adesanya I prefer not to watch press conferences its a waste of time. I never knew he likes Dogs in a explicit type of manner until the Sean Strickland stuff saw a short of it and looked into it. after seeing that no longer a fan. I try to only be a fan of what happens on fields, courts or in the ring but some stuff is unavoidable. when he burst into the ufc I just started watching anime im 27 now so I was pretty old getting into anime and seeing him do anime stuff in the ring, dancing, flashy kicks etc made me a fan. im writing this because you said you dont see how someone could be a fan of izzy. im a casual in terms of viewing time but not in terms of actual fighting. grew up doing martial arts and mma as well as wrestling in high school. so I appreciate the sport for what it is the added drama and spectacle is and has always been a bonus a bonus I know thats usually manufactured and phony. still fun none the less

[@therainman7777]

If you’re 27 I strongly suggest you get yourself out of anime, asap. No offense. But you don’t want to be a 30 year old, fully grown man who’s super into cartoons. Especially anime.
